Sitting Around Talking Movies

Well here we are. The "Unofficial Start of Summer" and the entertainment industry has cooked up a virtual feast for your holiday weekend. First there's "Cruella." Disney's live-action origin story of the villain from "101 Dalmations" with Emma Stone in the title role along with Emma Thompson. It's got dogs, it's got scenery, it's got a 70s soundtrack, but is it worth traveling to a theater to see on a busy weekend? We'll let you know. Then there's the "Friends" reunion show on HBO Max. That's the one where the once incredibly cute cast is lured from their mansions (and maybe rehab) to talk about their golden days on their once must-see sitcom. There are celebrity guests, a Nobel Peace Prize winner and James Corden on hand to ask softball questions. Neil, a big "Friends" fan, will tell you all about it. And it wouldn't be a weekend without a zombie movie, so we'll tell you about Zack Snyder's "Army of the Dead" now streaming on Netflix." It takes place in Las Vegas. Think "Ocean's 11" but with zombies. Bill Mc
